Disable Google Handwriting Input suggestions











up vote

favorite












I would like to turn off the suggestions provided by the Google Handwriting Input. I have tried setting the EditText inputType through xml and code, but neither seem to be working:



<EditText

    android:inputType="textNoSuggestions|textVisiblePassword"

    />



myEditText.setInputType(InputType.TYPE_TEXT_FLAG_NO_SUGGESTIONS | InputType.TYPE_TEXT_VARIATION_VISIBLE_PASSWORD);


Is there any other way to programmatically turn off the suggestions?



Context: I'm working on an app that tests users on their handwriting abilities, which prompts (and validates) users to install and use the Google Handwriting Input.

          How to test boost logger output in unit testing?

          Image
          up vote 1 down vote favorite My application uses BOOST_LOG_TRIVIAL to log messages. I thought it's good to check in test (gtest) that correct messages are written there in given scenarios. Is there a way to somehow access what was written there after code was called? Or does it first have to be mocked in some way? I have googled a lot for this and haven't found any instructions, so either I am asking wrong questions or no one thinks it should be done. c++ logging boost googletest boost-log share | improve this question edited yesterday ...

          up vote 1 down vote favorite I'm trying to write to the output (echo) within two pipe to have a trace of what I'm doing but I have an error. Get-ChildItem $path -Recurse | Where-Object { $_.Name -match '.+?.log.(d{4})-(d{2})-(d{2})$' -and $_.LastWriteTime -lt $deleteDate } | Write-Output "deleting file" -PassThru | Remove-Item but I have this error : Write-Output : The input object cannot be bound to any parameters for the command either because the command does not take pipeline input or the input and its properties do not match any of the parameters that take pipeline input.
